A project of our size needs at least a few hundred million dollars per year to keep going,β Mr. Durov wrote in his public channel on Telegram late last year. βWhile doing that, we will remain independent and stay true to our values, redefining how a tech company should operate.
Export WhatsApp stickers to Telegram on Android
From the Files app, scroll down to Internal storage, and tap on WhatsApp. Once youβre there, go to Media and then WhatsApp Stickers. Donβt be surprised if you find a large number of files in that folderβit holds your personal collection of stickers and every one youβve ever received. Even the bad ones.Tap the three dots in the top right corner of your screen to Select all. If you want to trim the fat and grab only the best of the best, this is the perfect time to do so: choose the ones you want to export by long-pressing one file to activate selection mode, and then tapping on the rest. Once youβre done, hit the Share button (that βless thanβ-like symbol at the top of your screen). If you have a big collectionβmore than 500 stickers, for exampleβitβs possible that nothing will happen when you tap the Share button. Be patientβyour phoneβs just struggling with a heavy load.On the menu that pops from the bottom of the screen, choose Telegram, and then select the chat named Saved messages. This is a chat only you can see, and it will serve as your sticker bank. Unlike WhatsApp, Telegram doesnβt store your favorite stickers in a quick-access reservoir right beside the typing field, but youβll be able to snatch them out of your Saved messages chat and forward them to any of your Telegram contacts. This also means you wonβt have a quick way to save incoming stickers like you did on WhatsApp, so youβll have to forward them from one chat to the other.
